Friends of Roseerans Urging Him for the
Coast Survey.

OF IsoStcrdnS HIM Tor the
Coast Survey.
copylgat, 1887, By the California 4ssoclated Press
WASHINGTON, June Sth.-General Rose
Grams friends take exception to an article
now going through the press forcing COM
parison between the scientific attainments
of certain candidates for the office of Super
intendent of the Coast Survey. General
Rosecrans has been very strongly urged for
the place. and his friends assert that the
article in question is incorrect and unjust.
They point out that after graduating in the
Engineer Corps at West Point Rosecrans
served three years as professor of civil
and military engineering, and one as pro-
fessor of natural and experimental philos-
ophy including astronomy He surveyed
the New Bedford harbor and Taunton
river in 1S47-52, doing the most intricate
part of the work himself Aside from this
his life has been spent in scientific invest
igation. No one, they contend, denies his
great service to the Republic, and they sug-
gest that past neglect might be in meas
ure compensated by the Generals appoint
ment.

A CLOUDRURsT.
Cause of Tuesdays Damaging Floods in
PENNSYLVANIA.


JoHNsTowN (Pa.), June Sth.-The heavy
flood which swept over portions of Somer-
set and Cambria counties yesterday was
caused by waterspout which burst west
of Hooverville, in Somerset county. That
village was entirely submerged. and the
destruction of property is great. Many
bridges and logs were carried off Upwards
of twenty residences were washed off their
foundation, and at least 100 families in
this borough alone lost everything in the
lower stories and cellars of their houses.
Grubbtown, Conemaughborough Morrill,
vile, Minersville, Cambria City and
Coopersdale also suffered severely, and it
is estimated that in this city and suburbs
at least 200 people were temporarily rem
dered homeless. No estimate can be made
of the damage at present, but it is thought
that it will reach S150,000 in this vicinity
alone
